I have 3 networked computers running Windows 98SE, with a cable router connection to the internet.
When accessing a large (10mb) mpeg file on the web, two of the computers can download the file repeatedly without hang ups. The third computer (my main rig) can only complete the download once out of about ten attempts without hanging before the download is complete.
This same file can be transferred between the computer in question and the other two without hanging and can also be uploaded/downloaded via FTP to/from the web site without hanging.
The problem occurs only when accessing the file over the web. Same result when using either Netscape or IE browsers and when using different mpeg plugins - Windows Media Player or Quicktime.
I tried swapping the router ports and have updated the driver for the D-Link DFE530-TX+ NIC. - No Help.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to methods or diagnostics to try to isolate this problem?
Thanks
